We got married on Oct 7th, we stayed the Friday night before the big day and left on the Sunday morning. On arrival the receptionist was highly professional and after a friendly insight as to the location of the various amenities, we checked into the Bridal Suite. We were delighted at the cleanliness ,the facilities within the room , the bottle of bubbly and the box of chocolates left.Once unpacked the bar was visited where by we met Margaret and Audrey. Nothing was too much trouble for these ladies including re positioning my flower on my suit on the morning of the wedding. Kyle behind the bar was a great ambassador for the complex, very approachable courteous and professional the whole time he served us.The catering staff and the food we received during our stay was second to none.My wife and I still think about our fabulous a stay at the Mill Forge , we are even going to book the same dates next year for our Anniversary, I would just like to finish and thank everyone for making our visit so relaxed and welcoming . Their are too many names to thank individually so a great big thank you to every one, You did yourselves proud The Mill Forge .

Room Tip: Bridal rooms are top of the range. Other rooms are fair for their price.

We had our wedding here a couple of weeks ago and it is a good wedding venue but not as brilliant as the reviews I’ve read. The bridal suites were £180 , that’s including a discount for the dream wedding package . A bit overpriced in our opinion as the tv vibrated constantly and the remote didn’t even have a back on it to keep the batteries in . We were charged more than we expected for all the guests rooms as it never said on the sheet of paper that the prices already included the wedding package discount. When it’s your wedding you don’t like to complain and I don’t regret having the wedding there but I think reading all the reviews I just expected everything to be perfect . I’ve been to the highlands many times and the hospitality is outstanding and maybe I expected The Mill Forge to be like that. At breakfast we had to ask 3 mornings on the run for cups, cutlery . No matter where we sat there was something missing off the table . Small things but they do begin to turn into big niggles looking at the full picture .

Booked a last minute trip after being caught up in the Monarch fiasco. Booked for 4 nights and we are so pleased we did. Beautiful hotel with stunning surroundings. We booked a twin room with disabled facilities which was a lovely, warm, cosy room with everything you need. It is a wedding venue but still make you feel more than welcome if, like us, you were staying for a short break and not attached to a wedding party. The bar is welcoming and comfatable and the food in the restaraunt is fantastic and very reasonably priced. All of the staff were brilliant and cant do enough for you. A special mention to Katie, Margaret and Kyle in the bar and to Clare in the restaraunt for the never ending hospitality offered by them. Nothing was too much trouble and you could tell, they really enjoy their job. We would definatley return and can highly recommend The Mill Forge as a venue for any occasion. TOP CLASS>

We went for a friend's wedding and stayed for two nights. The venue was wonderful and the rooms are loverly. There is a good choice of breakfast menu. The various prices suprised us as they were so reasonable I would say if you are thinking of planing a wedding please give this place a good lookIf you want a short time away it is well worth it
